Governor Charley E. Johns Conference Center

Governor Charley E. Johns Conference Center offers bookable indoor space for organisers planning meetings, conferences, family celebrations and other community events in Starke, Florida. Its rooms can be hired separately or in combination, giving organisers options for different group sizes and event formats. The venue’s published rental information lists capacity of up to 500 for the full conference centre, with smaller rooms available for more intimate gatherings.

The full-centre rental includes a stage, a kitchen preparation area, tables and chairs. Room arrangements also offer seating and tables, with kitchen facilities included for several configurations. These practical features make the centre suitable for events that need a presentation area, space for guests to gather and a place to prepare refreshments. The venue has hosted occasions such as memorial services, weddings, family reunions, graduation ceremonies, baby showers and class reunions, as well as public and organisational meetings.

Located on North Temple Avenue, the conference centre is operated in association with the North Florida Regional Chamber of Commerce. Organisers can enquire about room availability, rental arrangements and access for planning visits through the Chamber. Additional equipment, including audiovisual equipment and a dance floor, is listed separately from the basic room hire, so planners should confirm requirements and arrangements when making an enquiry. With several room sizes and a central hall, the centre provides a straightforward local option for private functions, business gatherings and community events in Bradford County.
